More Bachmann For Your Money

Michele Bachmann does not put her money where her mouth is, she puts your money there.

Dishy dish dish. MadameMichele Bachmann and her personal stylist/husband Marcus Bachmann are being called out onThe Huffington Post for being massive hypocrites. While the Bachmann’s are known to trash Obama spending habits, the dish is that they were first in line with hands out applying for their piece of the Obama Sweet Potato Pie. Gross. And speaking of gross, now we can sit back and watch thatGross Baboon and her Grosser Baboon of a husband crash and burn.

A Freedom of Information Act request filed by The Huffington Post with three separate federal agencies reveals that on at least 16 separate occasions, Bachmann petitioned the federal government for direct financial help or aid. A large chunk of those requests were for funds set aside through President Obama’s stimulus program, which Bachmann once labeled “fantasy economics.” Bachmann made two more of those requests to the Environmental Protection Agency, an institution that she has suggested she would eliminate if she were in the White House.

Taken as a whole, the letters underscore what Bachmann’s critics describe as a glaring distance between her campaign oratory and her actual conduct as a lawmaker. Combined with previous revelations that Bachmann personally relied on a federally subsidized home loan while her husband’s business benefited from Medicaid payments, it appears that one of the Tea Party‘s most cherished members has demonstrated that the government does, in fact, play a constructive role — at least in her life and district.

This is a must-read piece, so please go there to learn what a horrendous, two-faced, typical politician Bachmann is. My happy moment is knowing that one of my favorite quotes applies here: Those who sit in judgment, shall not judge.
